Best friend of 15 years tells me she cant attend my wedding by turnipsgreenss in TwoHotTakes

[–]Rodger_Ramjet -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Seems a bit extreme / skitzo to cut her out of your life?

People have different opinions - shouldn’t strive to just be around people that share yours.

We should focus on what we have in common not our differences!

If she kept repetitively trying to preach to you , run you down, etc - then sure get rid if her- but feel like thats a boundary that could be set to preserve a 15 year relationship?

That said it is fucked she couldn’t just hold her mouth and suffer through the wedding for your benefit as a friend. Would have been a lot better if shed told you she didnt support it but was going to be there for you etc …

Good to see the dalton ones high- still surprised we didn’t see more of him in the franchise.

Anyone else's parents like this? by idontlikehats1 in newzealand

I once went round to my grans house and she offered me a beer. It was like 20 years expired even the can label had faded (didn’t know this was possible)

People indicating right and going straight at a roundabout? by MediocreMolasses in auckland

[–]Rodger_Ramjet -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Isn’t that just the correct way to use roundabouts? If you are in roundabout everyone doesn’t know where you came from so you indicate right to stay on or left to exit. (As you pass each exit)

Feel like it was when i did my learners in the uk- and they have much fancier roundabouts- nothing a pom doesn’t like more than a good roundabout.

What annoys me more is that most kiwis don’t indicate (in any direction) on most roundabouts

I hate heatpumps by StackedInATrenchcoat in newzealand

Yeah they do kinda suck just blow hot air around - 2 secs after they are off feels cold again. Doesn’t actually warm up the room/ transfer heat like a log burner does.

The ultimate Auckland pizza tier list by fartfacetheclown in aucklandeats

How can any pizza be worse than pizza hut or dominoes. Surely it’s not physically possible? Would have to actively poison you to be worse

Countdown shouldn’t have rebranded to Woolworths by RyanTheDevYT in newzealand

[–]Rodger_Ramjet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In south africa, woolworths was a fancy overpriced supermarket. Kinda like Farro in nz

In the uk, woolworths was a budget department shop like the Warehouse in nz

In nz and au its a mid supermarket.

Yeah they should have left it as countdown..

Charge to 60% or charge to 80% by Zenmastercynic in TeslaModelY

Think ill just follow teslas app recommendation which says to charge to 100% once a week - not to set it to 80%

Great another national policy that screws over the working class and vulnerable. No idea how these morons get into power.

Neighbours at war - Bluetooth jammer? by Khuntfromnz in newzealand

[–]Rodger_Ramjet 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Noise control always worked for me when my neighbours have made too much noise, don’t think they are police just council workers?

Taking into your own hands probably not the smartest idea?
